Device types

• CPAP: a constant or automatically regulated pressure keeps the airways open – the standard for obstructive sleep apnoea. CPAP devices →
• Bilevel / BiPAP: two pressure levels for inhalation and exhalation, e.g. when a high pressure is needed.
• ASV: adaptive servo-ventilation adjusts support breath by breath – used only after medical assessment.
• Ventilators: for home ventilation with alarm functions and batteries. Only for trained users or after instruction.

CPAP or BiPAP – what is the difference?

A CPAP device produces a constant pressure throughout the breathing cycle. With auto-CPAP the device adjusts this pressure within a range set by your doctor. A BiPAP or bilevel device works with two separate pressure levels: a higher pressure for inhalation (IPAP) and a lower one for exhalation (EPAP). The difference between them is called pressure support.

Which device type and mode is suitable is always decided by your doctor or sleep lab – not by the dealer.
